What doesnt keep drunks busy?

Wow, if you can make this possible I'm all for it!
Looks way better then the neat little "packets" dropped.
We dont need no kit-icons.

can we not just modify the bag model to a weapon of that kit.. or is this to much work?

This is a screenshot from battlefield 2 beta version



Look at the fallen soldier in the centre of the picture. His weapon is lying near him. It looks like it was in BF2 beta but it was removed for some reason (like many other good ideas).

But what if you're H-AT? Just a pistol laying there?

i'm really sick of the kit bag.

Never seen the H-AT pickup-kit? On eg. Mestia?
The Eryx lying around is an easy spot.

Forgot that..

Ragdoll would be great, don't think it's possible though. The death animations are so funny right now, if you play it slowmo, it looks ridiculous.

If the HAT guy gets killed it can drop a HAT weapon or anything else in his inventory. Same goes for every other kit. You can have a guy drop his knife or even field dressing instead a dropbag.

I don't own a server myself.

I don't Mind the kits at the moment, Except that the US/MEC/PLA Kit drops look too small to carry all that equipment, they need to be larger like British Ones.

However I'm sure this weapons thing would work with Insurgents/Militia, since they have few weapons on there kits anyway.

The problem is that if we want to achieve some level of realism there shouldn't be dropbags coming out of a player's *** like they do now. I also wonder if it is possible to keep the kit geometry (helmets, pouches, backpacks...) on a dead/critically wounded model so it doesn't vaporise after a few seconds.

Even with this method now shown here, it would be much more realistic than a big bag next to the dead guy.

It should take a little longer to Grab someones kit, simulating getting everything out of pouches, etc.

I realy think PR devs need to think twice befor saying NO to such a grate idea i see it very realistic and also it can be a good advantage on other mods .... i mean now the dead guy drops kitbag out of his *** with kit name on it, did you see in reality someone dead soldier drops kitbag out of his body ? this is enough to see weapon to know what kit is that i mean: if the dead guy was ANTI TANK kit so you guys can do it so he drops out not his rifle but his Anti tank tube ..

I guess I will have to repeat my self.

This was already tried before by me in a test build with all the testers and as I said, it has issues in a dedicated server. It doesn't work as it's supposed to.

We want this, but it doesn't work as posted by the initial poster.

So topic closed and make sure you read our replies before saying we are ignoring this suggestion.
